Hello,

Please feel free to ask any question, make any comment or anything else you feel that will aid the forum, but try and be civil. That should be a given across anywhere, really.

Also, try to finish off your posts with four "squiggles" (~~~~) which is beside the "1" key to show the user name and the time of the post. It makes everyone's lives easier.

Flags

Hello,
Just wanted to ask if I could have the flags for the following countries:

  • Tropico
  • Macau (for the Macau GP)
  • Cyprus (Or wherever the Mediterranean GP used to be)
  • Any others you can think of

I have all the other obvious flags (Canada, UK, France, etc.) but my computer is very slow. So be patient. -Jeremy

To FMecha

Hello,

Could you somehow transfer over the ingenious message box to this wiki? That would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Jeremy (talk) 00:41, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

FMecha's here! What message box you mean? FMecha (talk) 05:10, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
Found it (through cache) but I can't make it to work. I tried this:

{| class="wikitable" style="float: right;" width="493px | {{{1}}} |} FMecha (talk) 05:37, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, looks like it doesn't work for me as well. Where did you get the template from? Jeremy (talk) 03:00, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
I basically opened a google cache of the old Wikkii-hosted main page and put it on a HTML to Wiki converter page. Template:Msgbox now exists, but it does not center. FMecha (talk) 06:59, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Driver Infoboxes

Hi chaps! One question, is there a driver infobox doing the rounds at the moment? I'm re-doing my driver profiles and it might be nice to present them with one. Cheers :) Ataxia (talk) 00:02, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

I guess there isn't one at the moment, as all templates were lost as well with the Wikkii crash. I honestly haven't put a lot of thought on drivers yet, as I've been busy creating the pages for my series. Unless someone else does it first, I might have a look at the infobox template tomorrow...Nuppiz (talk) 00:42, 9 November 2012 (UTC)


Website down again?

I recieve a 404 Error when trying to access the F1Rejects website - Pi3141 10:15, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

Same here. Looks like the hosting service is being useless again... Nuppiz (talk) 10:22, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

HTML to wiki table converter

Thanks to FMecha's hint, I found a handy online tool which allows you to convert HTML tables to wiki. It's not perfect as you still have to convert all flag icons and links manually, but should help a lot in salvaging cached content from the old wiki. You can find the tool here.
